High School and College Tutor Specializing in English and French

Alexia E.

Hi! I am a recent Boston University honors graduate with dual degrees in Neuroscience and Psychology, and I am currently pursuing my Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy at University of California. My background is heavily rooted in understanding how people learn and develop, which influences how I tutor. I know that academic success requires a supportive and patient environment, and my approach focuses on building a student's confidence just as much as their actual skill set.
My tutoring and mentoring background ranges from advising university peers on complex academic research to providing one-on-one academic and emotional support to elementary and middle school students. I have learned how to break down high-level, challenging concepts into clear, manageable steps that make sense for each individual's unique learning style. Whether a student needs a structured lesson plan or just someone to help them talk through complex material, I adapt to what works best for them.
Additionally, as a native French speaker, I provide authentic and comprehensive language instruction. I am completely comfortable guiding college students through advanced English reading and writing assignments, or helping high schoolers master foundational conversational French. I want my students to get as much out of our sessions as possible, so I highly value collaboration and resources from both students and parents. I am easy to reach, highly responsive, and ready to answer any questions you might have. Feel free to reach out to schedule a lesson!
